IMPROVEMENT IN HEATING-DRUMS.

Specification forming partof Letters Patent No. 143,795, dated October 21,1873; application filed March 1,1873.

To all whom t may concern:

Be it known that I, ISAAC l?. TICE, of New York, N. Y., have invented an Improved Heating Apparatus, of which the following is a specification:

The object of this invention is to utilize a larger proportion of heat than has heretofore been accomplished.A To effect this the fine or chimney is provided With dampers, by Which the heated air and products of combustion are conductedinto drums or radiators, placed at convenient localities in the various apartments through which the flue is made to pass.

To more fully illustrate the manner by which this is accomplished, reference is made to the Y accompanying drawings.

Figure l is a vertical section through E E E, rooms D D', floors A A', furnace B, and radi-y ators C C'. 'm is the cold-air pipe n n n, the air-space around the furnace B; l, the air-pipe leading to the flue; k, the pipe conducting the products of combustion from the flunace B to the flues E E. c d and c' d' are the dampers in the lue to direct the heated currents passing 'om the lfurnace. C C' are radiators through Which the currents pass. g g' are the ash-pits below the radiators. Fig. 2 is a horizontal section through the flue and radiators C C'. D represents the Wall of the building; E, the line; C, the radiators and c d the damp the passage from the flue to the radiator; (1,'

the damper in the radiator; it' t', the deflection-plates to retard the heat in passing through the radiators; and g g' the ash-pits.

VWhen it is necessary to heat the rooms D D', the danipers e e in the flue are closed, and d d' in the radiators are opened. The heated gases then pass through the section of the lue out. off by the dampers e e', and pass through the radiators C C' and return to the llue E. By this arrangement the heated gases that usually pass unobstructed up the ilue are deilected, and, by means of the radiators, the heat is utilized. The heat radiated from the furnace B is carried to the line E E E, from the chambersm n through the pipe e.

I claim The furnace B, having the draft-pipe 7c, and the radiating-chamber 'n n, having the outlet and inlet pipes Z and-m, in combination with the ue E and radiators C, to produce the effect described.

ISAAC I. TICE.
